Chapter 109: The Fairy Civil War: The Consciousness of Arrogance and Death
Fuko was running again. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the midst of this Fairy Tail civil war, his mission seems to be to constantly run to one destination, and then to another. This time, he rushed from the outskirts of the town of Magnolia to the residential area.
Miraj, Jubian, Kana, and Elfman were left far behind. Miraj had to take care of the three wounded, and she said to Fuko: "The civil war is not over, you go to Laxus, only by finding him can you end this senseless war." β
Receiving accurate instructions from the noble and wise white-haired queen, her black knight once again began a large-scale search for the missing person. Everywhere he went, he noticed that some of the guild's magicians were waking upβmost of them had passed out after draining each other's magic in the enchantmentβbut he didn't have time to check on their injuries.
After the effect of "Ghost Walk" lasts for 10 seconds, his speed decreases. He then walked through the sky above the residential buildings until he saw Elusa's name again on the War Map.
He had to go to Elusa. Elusa was running in his direction with the long sword at her waist with a serious expression, and when she saw him, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and her long crimson hair fluttered in the air, falling as she paused in place.
If it were a different time and place, it would definitely be a romantic meeting scene, but unfortunately they don't have this kind of mind now.
"Did you deal with Filid?" Elusa asked curiously.
"Filid was indeed solved, but it was Miraj who solved it, and her magic was restored. Fuko looked up, pointed to the floating golden crystals in the sky, and asked, "What's that, Elusa?"
Not long ago, Elusa did sense Miraj's soaring magic power, at the beginning, they were like Natsu and Gray often fought over trivial things, so she was very familiar with Miraj's magic, so she was not too surprised that Miraj had solved Filid.
"That's the 'Shrine of the Gods,' I forgot to tell you before. They were made by Laxus, you know, Laxus is good at lightning magic, those magic crystals contain the power of thunder and lightning, once they are all released, there will be countless lightning strikes to the residential areas of Magnolia Town, and now it is too late to start evacuating the residents, so I decided to find a way to destroy the 'Temple of Songs' first. β
"What about Laxus?"
"He's there in the cathedral. Go ahead, Natsu and Gajiru are there, and you can support them. β
Fuko noticed that Elusa was talking and talking, her face was a little pale, and she asked with concern, "What's wrong, did something happen?"
Elusa's eyes stared into his eyes and asked seriously, "Fuko, I want to know, besides you, is there anyone else in this world who has the ability to be 'immortal'?"
Fuko thought for a moment, not understanding why she asked this question, but still answered truthfully: "Then there is only the most powerful dark wizard Jelf, Gerald said before, he symbolizes 'immortality'......"
When he mentioned the name "Gerald", he noticed that Elusa shivered.
"What the hell is going on?"
Elusa closed her eyes in pain and said in a deep voice, "I've been having nightmares since the incident of the Tower of Paradise passed, dreaming every night that Gerald's resurrection came to me for revenge and tormented me...... For a moment I thought I was hallucinating, but reality told me it was true, and I saw Gerald alive again. You know, Fuko, Mistrand has the exact same face as Gerald, do you think that's a coincidence?"
She opened her eyes and looked at him pleadingly, hoping that he would answer in the affirmative.
"Yes, that's a coincidence. β
Fuko did as she wished.
But she was still not satisfied, her fists clenched, and then she said sullenly: "Misterland left here after his appearance was revealed by Laxus after fighting with Laxus, and it is impossible to get an answer now...... Forget it, the guild's affairs are first, you hurry up to the cathedral, and I'll find a way to solve the 'Temple of Divine Songs'." β
"Okay. β
She suddenly stretched out her hands and grabbed Fuko's shoulders with such force that she wanted to crush his shoulder blades.
"Ai ...... Elusa?"
"One more thing, you have to pay attention, I asked you to come over to support, which means that you and Natsu and the others will fight side by side. β
"I know. β
"No, you don't know. It is true that you will appear by our side at a critical moment every time, but you have no intention of fighting with us, you stand alone in front of us every time, and do not hesitate to gamble with your own life, I will never allow that kind of behavior. What happened once on the Tower of Paradise, I don't want it to happen a second time. β
"Yes...... But if I don't bet on what I cherish most, I won't have the desire to fight. I'm just fighting to survive and protect, I'm fighting for my own selfishness. β
"I won't allow you to ......"
"Why did you let me go to the cathedral if you didn't allow it?"
"Because...... I always knew I couldn't convince you, and I couldn't stop you. Elusa let go of her grip on his shoulders and said, "You won't have to say it, you'll be there too." I just hope you can fight with Natsu and them, please trust them and trust me. β
Fuko was silent for a moment, then replied, "Okay, I see. β
A kind of arrogance has been at work, and he thinks that he must challenge the cliff alone, and he can do it alone. But is this thinking wrong? Maybe he just kept his heart empty and afraid, and while he believed in his partners, he could only watch them fall into the abyss.
In fact, it's not just him, Elusa, Natsu, and Gray, every time they encounter a strong enemy, they fight for their lives, and they are all equal. The only difference is that they have accepted the belief that their partners will be able to catch up with them and fight to the end like themselves.
Perhaps, it is indeed time to let go of this pride.
After all, he didn't want to die, every time he died, on the surface he didn't have anything, but in fact, there was always a negative emotion accumulating, and it wasn't until the last time he killed Gerald that he was released and vented.
He knew that if he continued like this, even if he was not completely killed by a strong enemy, he would self-inflict because of madness.
Before rushing to the cathedral, he heard the roar and explosion of the church from a distance, and it seemed that the battle was extremely fierce. At this moment, he was surprised to see that Lebby had broken into the church at this time, and she was shouting loudly to the inside, and Fuko could hear it.
"Laxus, stop it! The doctor just checked the president's body and said he ...... Say he's dying......" she cried out hoarsely.
"'It's going to be gone'?" said Fuko as he walked behind her and asked incredulously, he couldn't figure out why Makarov, who had told him to go to the Council of Magic, was fine, and now he was "not going to work"?
Rebi's eyes were blurred with tears, and she vaguely recognized Fuko standing in front of her, and she explained sadly, "President Makarov was nervous about your civil war just now, and then he passed out. The doctor, Polyusica, came to check on him, and suddenly he said that he was going to die, so I rushed over to tell Laxus. β
No way......
Fu Ko covered his forehead, feeling that everything was in chaos.
Why is it that Gerald is not dead, but the old man is dying?
But it was the church that Laxus laughed maniacally, and his laughter echoed throughout the church. Natsu, scarred from the battle, asked angrily, "How can you still laugh when the old man is like that?"
"Hahaha......" said Laxus, who slowly stopped laughing, "that's what makes people laugh! If he had given me the chairmanship earlier, he wouldn't have had to reap the consequences! β
"Do you think there will be people in the guild who will support you now, Laxus?" said Fuko in a sudden loud voice.
"You're an 'encyclopedia', aren't you? I still have to admit your strength to defeat my two men in succession. Don't worry, when the time comes, I'll give you a place in the guild. "But weak magicians like Natsu must be exorcized." See, what did those magicians do in this civil war, killing each other, and in the end they were all defeated alive by the three 'Thor's'! They are a bunch of useless waste, and it is because of their existence that the guild has the current state of being bullied! 'Fairy Tail' does not need that kind of weakling!"
"Rak......" Natsu shouted as she was about to rush forward, but was grabbed back by Fuko.
He stood up with a gloomy face and said:
"To be honest, I'm really annoyed today, and I've been in a good mood all of my time. I got the information I shouldn't have got. People who shouldn't have been fighting, now have to fight. People who shouldn't have died are now on the verge of death. β
"Laxus, do you really want to blame everything on those magicians? Are you sure it wasn't your laziness that made the guild what it is? Are you sure it wasn't you who wanted to change the guild in a brutal and direct way to make it like this? Don't you feel ashamed to blame everyone else? Do you know how powerful they are? Can someone like you, cowering behind a shield and a spear, understand the consciousness of those magicians who risked their lives?"
"You ......" Laxus contorted his face to say something, but suddenly heard countless explosions, countless explosions, and countless cries of pain coming from outside the church.
"It's impossible for the 'Fairy Queen' to destroy all of the 'Temple of Divine Songs' alone, and the reflected damage and lightning damage will kill her. Gajiru, who had been saying nothing on the sidelines, finally spoke, "It was they who together destroyed your 'Shrine of Divine Songs', those you consider weak. β
